Christmas Movie Challenge

Who knows their Christmas movie trivia? I'm not a movie buff at all, but I do love Christmas movies. Play along; match the quotes with the movies. Have fun!

QUOTES

1. No, Charlie. That's why I'm a misfit toy. My name is all wrong. No child wants to play with a Charlie-in-the-box, so I had to come here.

2. You know, I think this Christmas thing is not as tricky as it seems. And why should they have all the fun? It should belong to anyone. Not anyone, in fact, but me.

3. We're kicking off our fun old fashion family Christmas by heading out into the country in the old front-wheel drive sleigh to embrace the frosty majesty of the winter landscape and select that most important of Christmas symbols.

4. This is extremely important. Will you please tell him (Santa) that instead of presents this year, I just want my family back. No toys-nothing but Peter, Kate, Buzz, Mega, Linnie, and Jeff. And my aunt and my cousins. And if he has time, my Uncle Frank, ok?

5. There's no Christmas in the army.

6. I never thought it was such a bad little tree. It's not bad at all, really. Maybe it just needs a little love.

7. I like to smile. Smiling's my favorite.

8. Mortal, we spirits of Christmas do not live one day of the year, we live the whole 365. So it is true of the child born in Bethlehem.

9. Who gave you permission to tell Charlie there was no Santa Claus? I think if we're going to destroy our son's delusions, I should be part of it.

10. Faith is believing in things when commonsense tells you not to. Don't you see? It's not just Kris that's on trial, it's everything he stands for. It's kindness and joy and love and all the other intangibles.

11. My balls are freezin! I never thought I'd say THAT with a smile on my face.

12. Seeing is believing, but sometimes the most real things in the world are the things we can't see.

13. What is it you want, Mary? What do you want? You want the moon? Just say the word and I'll throw a lasso around it and pull it down. Hey! That's a pretty good idea, I'll give you the moon, Mary.

14. It's Christmas Eve. It's-it's the one night of the year when we all act a little nicer, we-we-we smile a little easier, we-w-w-we-we-we cheer a little more. For a couple of hours out of the whole year, we are people that we always hoped we would be.

15. Santie Claus, why? Why are you taking our Christmas tree? Why?
